Abstract: Computerized method that provides user control of multiple reusable parallel buffers that have utility in mapping and processing digital transformations to improve formation of composite images for single or multiple images. Pixel and sub-pixel memory maps (i.e., Shadow Buffers) of screen space and projector attributes (e.g., gamma, contrast, intensity, color, position, stretching, warping, soft-edge blending, etc.) are used to improve the final overall composite image.

Abstract: The Shadow Buffer method can be characterized as control of multiple reusable parallel buffers that have utility in mapping digital transformations to improve formation of composite images for single displays or multiple projected images. This method can be described analogously as innovative extensions to current software and hardware solutions that use multiple allocation of pixel memory space to color, alpha and Z-depth functions. The Shadow Buffers are additional pixel and sub-pixel memory maps of screen space and projector attributes (e.g., gamma, contrast, intensity, color, position, stretching, warping, soft-edge blending) that improve the final overall composite image.
